The sad thing is, he just wanted someone to hear him. But his mind is so far gone he’s lost the ability to communicate properly. OP was probably the first person to respond positively to anything he’s said in years.

That's what most people don't understand. Most "crazy" homeless people were perfectly normal at first. It's being constantly treated like you don't exist by everyone that messes up your brain like that.

I absolutely agree. As a therapist with personal experience, I think it would be cool af and an overall good idea if university degree courses for becoming a therapist included an elective- but highly encouraged- course which focuses on simulating different symptoms

At an agency meeting once, we played "never have I ever" and one of them was "nhie gone a week without showering;" I was the only one who had, and I got some seriously judgmental looks

Lmao, as someone struggling with mental health, that's nothing, but I get it being frowned upon

But yes, I don't judge people on stuff like this. After all, what's the point?

And there was an exchange someone I saw that went like "I can't imagine someone's mental health being so bad they don't shower for a week!"

And the response was just "girl, some people's mental health is so bad they kill themselves"

Ah yes, making friends with the local McDonald's schizo, a classic American pastime.

It's not quite the same as doing it at Chipotle.

So this is why we haven't gotten a new death grips album?
